The drive to feed hungry families in North Texas is pushing ahead through the holiday season.
Tarrant Area Food Bank and North Texas Food Bank are still going strong with mass food distributions as they wrap up 2020.
Both agencies have been non-stop since the pandemic began, working to feed families struggling from the economic fallout of the pandemic.
